How long and at what temp do you bake??
Petro says
Hi Tanya. It’s in the instructions. Low temp (depends on your oven; around 400 F should do fine) for about 15 minutes, until cucumbers change color

I love pickles! Making them and eating them. My Grandmother taught me how to make the Bread and Butter Pickle Slices and I have been making them for almost 30 years now. Thank you for the Garlic Pickle Recipe. I look forward to making them soon.
Petro says
Hi, Sherry. So happy you liked my recipe! I never tried bread and butter pickle slices but sounds super delicious, I’ll have to give it a try soon. Thanks!
Carrie says
These look wonderful, and I would like to try them with some lemon cucumbers. Are you using quart jars in the recipe?
Petro says
Thanks so much, Carrie. I’ve been using different jar sizes, the ones in the photos are pint jars.
Carrie says
Thank you for such a quick response! Unfortunately, I was way too excited to wait and tried it with quart jars. Will it still work? Is a tsp enough salt for a quart jar? Also, a little liquid leaked from a couple of the jars during the upside down in the oven process. Has this ever happened to you? Let me know if you think I need to start over… I am pretty new to canning, and have only done fruit jam in the past. Thank you Petro!
